Overview

Do you know which city was the capital of France in 15th century ? Which city is considered to be the Garden of France? Or where you can hear the purest French spoken language?

The answer to all of these questions is Tours, a historic city dating back to the Middle Ages located right in the heart of France, just one hour away from Paris.

Join our helpful and knowledgeable guides to discover the rich history and wonderful medieval buildings of Tours. Admire the exterior of the city's beloved Cathédrale Saint-Gatien, a beautiful mix of different architectural styles.

Another point of interest may be the medieval Tour Charlemagne, located in the center of the Old City. Feel free to visit the famous museum of Beaux- Arts on your own, admiring its impressive collection.

Then, enjoy a taste of the region's fine wine, considered by many to be among the best in all of France. Let us show you the beautiful city of Tours through the eyes of a local!
